Ideas Come From Everything

I Am A Typed Director. If I Made Cinderella, The Audience Would Immediately Be Looking For A Body In The Coach.

I'm Full Of Fears And I Do My Best To Avoid Difficulties And Any Kind Of Complications. I Like Everything Around Me To Be Clear As Crystal And Completely Calm.

To Me Psycho Was A Big Comedy. Had To Be.

[when Accepting The American Film Institute Life Achievement Award] I Beg Permission To Mention By Name Only Four People Who Have Given Me The Most Affection, Appreciation, And Encouragement, And Constant Collaboration. The First Of The Four Is A Film Editor, The Second Is A Scriptwriter, The Third Is The Mother Of My Daughter Pat (patricia Hitchcock), And The Fourth Is As Fine A Cook As Ever Performed Miracles In A Domestic Kitchen. And Their Names Are Alma Reville.

Self-plagiarism Is Style.
